The Syrian Armed Forces continued its military exercises for the fourth consecutive day on Tuesday.

Units from the air force formations participated in the maneuvers. The formations conducted a tactical operational project with live fire simulating real battle conditions.

“Fighter aircrafts performed the tasks of repelling virtual counter air strikes in the project, while bombing aircrafts took part in carrying out the tasks of fire impacting and destroying hostile targets, with attack helicopters providing fire support to the forces,” SANA news agency reported.

The project included an airdrop behind proposed enemy lines in which the Special Armed Forces members were able to take control of the specified area at the right time with great efficiency and high combat spirit, it said.

The agency added that transport aircrafts successfully conducted a cargo airdrop operation, in which healthcare vehicles and medically-equipped helicopters participated in evacuation and first aid tasks on battleground.
